Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson has warned that Europe cannot be successful by adopting a protectionist agenda as promoted by France, ahead of an EU summit focused on how to revive the European economy and reverse widespread deindustrialisation.
Swedish premier said that a more protectionist agenda would not help: “We do not want to protect European businesses that are basically not competitive.”



The Swedish PM has connections to american oil lobby, his wife runs a lobbyist resort, he has been meeting with Theil, and so on. Yeah, I get it, he wants the green the US can offer him.
And somehow I knew all this before reading your comment just based on the “widespread European deindustrialisation” comment…
It’s an impressive attestation to human stupidity that the most obvious propaganda still seems successful.
